Cheap compared to the woodcock. We must have around a hundred quids worth of meat running around our front garden. (Large with a couple of enormous horse chesnut trees).

Damn, that means I've chucked about £100 worth of meat into the hedge for foxie! I've tried feeding them to the dog, he won't touch them. I'd eat them myself, but they're b#####s to skin! £4.50 each? Reckon I could get that from the butcher? That's more than a pair of bunnies goes for! :O

The dog wont touch them, or the other 4 cats. But the one that likes them comes & tells me when the trap has gone off with one in it.
